Pedro Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Having a good monday today, morning walk with good buddy, then a nice fruit breakfast, now working sitting outside while he naps. Might even get a few orders in today by the way this is going. Good times. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yen_powell Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 After Thursday's funeral, word has reached me that someone else I know from my old bike club and many recent rallies has died yesterday. No proper details yet, but as he wasn't ill with anything nasty we are assuming heart attack. Early 60s, just retired, sold his house and was all set to move to Wisbech with his other half apparently. I can still remember him boasting about how his bike insurance cost had plummeted when we celebrated his 25th birthday. I last saw him at Christmas, the same event I last saw Jackie at as well. Here he is whilst dressed as a pirate. Come to think of it, Alan Dunn was nearly always dressed as a pirate. A nice bloke and an excellent musician. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I felt like a laughing smilie on account of him always being dressed as a pirate, but it wouldn't have been good etiquete. Sad news. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XTreme Posted March 28, 2023 Author Share Posted March 28, 2023 I needed to clean and lube the chain (you listening @Slowlycatchymonkey).......so I thought it would be a good time to figure out how to remove the box. I found a Shad video for this model....... .......and off it came! And I managed to get it back on again! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funnily enough as I was fitting the NOCO jumpstart lead scrabbling around trying to thread fat wires through bendy spots they didn’t want to go through and my fingers got blacker and blacker partially cos the bikes so damn dirty from sitting for over three months in airport parking I thought Pete would absolutely love this I took a pic showing how stupidly crammed in the battery is (yes I know it wouldn’t happen on a Honda ) and decided the sight of the last one might break you out in hives, enjoy Your welcome 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could carry a Romanian around with you in the top box … wearing his multi coloured jumper and shell tracksuit bottoms his bucket of water and squeegee and he could jump out and clean your bike when ever you stop 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has had the lid fly open multiple times. I think it is easy to think you have locked it properly when you haven't. It may just be a pensioner thing though, I've chased him a few time hooting or shouting, but the silly sod just waves and carries on riding with all his stuff falling out the flapping lid. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
